SUSECON 2026 Session Catalog Is Live: 100+ Sessions on Linux, Cloud Native, Edge, AI and more!

Flexibility, control, resilience, and long-term choice have become core design principles for enterprise IT, part of everyday architecture conversations. I see it every day in the discussions we have with our customers and partners, trade-offs that need to be addressed.

SUSECON 2026 is built around that reality. Our theme, Shape Your Resilient Future, reflects the way enterprises are designing platforms that can evolve without constant reinvention. Instead of chasing trends, IT leaders are focused on building systems and operating models that hold up as technologies, regulations, and business priorities change.

That framing guided how we designed this year’s agenda. And with that context, I’m happy to share that the SUSECON 2026 session catalog is now live!

One of my favorite parts of SUSECON every year are the hallway conversations. Practitioners comparing notes, sharing what they learned the hard way, and talking through what actually worked. Those conversations are often sparked by a session that hits close to home or a lab that mirrors a real production challenge. The SUSECON 2026 session catalog is packed with exactly those kinds of sessions.

You’ll find more than 100 sessions across Linux, Cloud Native, Edge, AI, and digital sovereignty. The breadth is intentional. Most enterprise environments are heterogeneous by design, and resilience depends on how well those pieces work together. Whether you are responsible for infrastructure strategy, platform engineering, security, or application delivery, there are tracks designed to meet you where you are.

If you are looking for perspective, the keynotes focus on patterns we are seeing across industries. How teams are regaining control of their platforms. How open standards are shaping digital sovereignty. How AI initiatives are being grounded in reliable, scalable infrastructure. 

If you want to go deeper, the technical sessions and tutorials are where the details live. Architecture discussions. Operational lessons. Real-world examples from organizations that have modernized incrementally, without disrupting what already works. This is where resilience shows up in practice, through design decisions and operational discipline.

Hands-on labs remain a core part of SUSECON. They give you the opportunity to test ideas, explore tooling, and learn alongside peers who are solving similar problems. Many attendees tell me these sessions are where concepts click and confidence builds. And while you’re with us, you can also take advantage of free SUSE certification exams, a practical way to validate skills and bring something tangible back to your team.

Another aspect I value deeply is the diversity of voices. SUSECON brings together customers, partners, and open source community members from around the world. The result is a grounded, honest exchange of ideas. What worked. What didn’t. What teams would do differently next time. That openness is part of what makes the conference useful year after year.

Prague is a fitting place for these conversations. It’s a city shaped by history, adaptation, and renewal. A place where old and new coexist thoughtfully. It’s a great setting to step back, think clearly, and engage with peers who care about building durable systems.

If you are already planning your priorities for 2026, the session catalogue is a good place to start. Browse the tracks. Flag the sessions that align with your challenges. Build an agenda that reflects your reality and your goals.

Early bird registration is now open, and I encourage you to take advantage of it. More importantly, I’d value your perspective in the room. SUSECON is strongest when it brings together people who are actively shaping the future of enterprise IT.

I look forward to seeing many of you in Prague as we continue the work of shaping a resilient future together!
